ARSE Though not a word in polite use, "arse", like many old words describing body parts and functions, originates in Indo-european. the IE word was *orsos which produced words meaning "bottom" or "tail" in most Germanic languages. The US "ass" is a euphemistic spelling of "arse" which reflects the general US pronunciation. The bird the "wheatear" has nothing to do with wheat or ears but comes from "white arse" after its white tail feathers. http://www.putlearningfirst.com/lang...nge/etmol.html |
Everyone knows that..I don't get your point? lol

Americanisms > |
Yes we should adopt most American words really, except Mom
|
I prefer Mom to Mum.
And the word arse reminds me of posh people trying to be rude. |
Well you would..mom's still used in the midlands lol

Neither but i'd use arse since i'm not american
|
Neither as both are not at all polite really are they, unless you're referring to a donkey
|
I don't get the weird patriotism to our way of pronouncing/spelling things.
As long as it's clear what you're saying, I don't see how it matters. |
Write it ass but say it arse
|
I type ass
Pronounce arse |
I can't believe so many use ass. It's American.
|
Why does it matter if it's American though, lots of Americanisms are in common usage in this country :shrug:

Plus, America >>> |
you'll all be saying aluminum next :bored: disgusting people
|
I use both depending on my mood
|
America owns us in alot of things tbh, just truth
|
Backoff

Savages :idc:
|
I say neither. D:
When I was a kid I used to say Bumnal instead of Arsenal, because I thought it was swearing. |
Seriously though..There's not really any words for the 'behind' that are very nice really
Normally just call it the backside or behind |

Wonder if Donkeys actually like being called an ass

Both.
Arse is particularly good for describing idiotic people. Ass is in good for when the Law gets it so wrong - and of course: when someone's derriere is in fine condition. |

Oh I don't know. I never objected when my rear end was described as a peach....... ;) (though maybe they meant furry !!! LOL) |
